Celebrating Cinco de Mayo Disney Style

Donde esta la fiesta? Where’s the party? It’s Cinco de Mayo! Whether you are at home or at Walt Disney World, you can celebrate the day Disney-style.

At Walt Disney World:

If you are lucky enough to be in WDW on May 5th, head to Epcot. World Showcase’s Mexico Pavilion has all you need to have a fiesta!

Lunch at La Cantina de San Angel– Stop off for a plate of nachos or some empanadas. Don’t forget to wash it down with a refreshing margarita.

Ride Gran Fiesta Tour – Join Donald and his Three Caballeros pals as they journey through Mexico. This relaxing boat ride is a great way to get out of the sun and cool off for a bit.

Shopping – Plaza de Los Amigos, located inside the Aztec temple is home to many carts of Mexican goods. From pinatas to sombreros to fine crystal, there’s shopping for all tastes. The fountain is also a great spot for a photo op. And speaking of photo ops…

Picture with Donald – Posted outside of the Aztec temple is Donald Duck. Dressed in his sombrero, he’s there to greet guests and sign autographs.

At Home:

If you’re at home, you can still Disney-fy your Cinco de Mayo celebration!
